I was home sick from work the other day (stomach virus) and I caught an episode of the Carol Duvall show where Tim Holtz had shown how to do the faux batik technique. I had seen this segment before but had never tried it. I had all the supplies - always a plus when you don't have to go out and buy anything - so I decided to give it a try. I'm pretty pleased with how the blue paper I created turned out. Since I wanted to use as large a piece as possible to really show it off, I came up with this simple layout. Swirly stars and the single blue star are SU, sentiment is Stampabilities, smaller stars are a punch. You can't tell from the scan, but I edged the blue panel with silver ink and used my gel sparkle pen to outline the stars for some sparkle.<br><br>I posted some <a href="http://twopeasinabucket.kaboose.com/mb.asp?cmd=display&thread_id=2288918 [twopeasinabucket.kaboose.com]">quickie instructions on how to do this technique</a> on the stamping message board.

So pretty. I caught that episode, too. Anytime I see Tim is on, I'm there. He's so talented.
